There is a certain cool factor that fire trucks possess. Whether
its because of what these great machines are capable or because of
the brave men and women that these trucks represent, there is an
undeniable appeal to these awesome trucks that just keeps getting
better with age. Here is your opportunity to be the very first
private owner of one of these fantastic trucks. This 1974 Dodge
W300 Fire Truck was special ordered new and built for the town of
Wakarusa, Indiana to be used at their local fire department. This
particular Fire Truck is in overall great condition, keeping in
consideration that the truck has been on the job for the last 50
years. This example has sparingly been driven with a mere 9700
original miles showing. The W300's Highlighter Yellow exterior
shines very well and is in very good condition for the age.
Complimenting the fire truck's exterior is its Pierce Company
custom made box, Wakarusa Fire Department graphics and aluminum
American Racing wheels wrapped in Mickey Thompson Deegan 38
all-terrain tires. The factory Black vinyl interior is in good
condition with some wear present throughout. Powering this Dodge is
its correct 360 cubic inch V8 backed by its 4-speed manual
transmission. Both the engine and transmission perform just as they
should with no issue. This fire truck still features all of its
original fire equipment in working order including siren, lights,
front mounted winch, water pump, spot lights (in-op), hoses and
ladder. This W300 is nicely equipped with factory options such as
power steering, power brakes, 4-wheel drive w/ manually locking
hubs, heater/defrost (in-op), instrumentation, and variable speed
wipers. If you are in the market for a fully operational vintage
fire truck, a great advertising piece for your business or just a
great classic truck that is sure to get plenty of attention at your
local car show or cruise-in, then you will want to take a very
close look at this 1974 Dodge W300 Fire Truck.
